Today’s ICS environments face challenges protecting critical network segments from incoming threats through the very network infrastructure designed to protect them. Most OT and IT network environments send out-of-band Ethernet packet copies to security and monitoring tools to analyze and respond to threats.

A one-way data transfer between segments or facilities may be required to address these challenges. This white paper will review:
